Title: Piston for an internal combustion engine
Inventor: MCLACHLAN PAUL ANTHONY
IPC: F02B53/00
Filed: 2001-03-23
Abstract: A piston for an internal combustion engine having a first end spaced from a second end. A pivot axis at the first end of the piston by which the piston may be pivoted within the combustion chamber of the engine. A first arcuate sealing surface transcribes a circumferential path about the pivot axis, as does a second surface which is radially offset towards the pivot axis from the first sealing surface. A piston floor is located between the first and second sealing surfaces and there is means remote from the pivot axis by which the piston can be pivotally connected to a connecting rod, connectable to a crankshaft which results in rotation of the crankshaft. The second sealing surface has at least two sealing components each of which is located on and has independent transverse sliding movement on a seal bed which forms part of the piston in a manner that one edge of one sealing component will mate with a contiguous edge of the second sealing component to provide a substantial gas seal between said mating edges of the sealing components.
